But here&#8217;s a new one for you.</p>
<p>Ryan Babel.</p>
<p>Yes, there are reports this morning that Harry Redknapp is looking to sign the Liverpool midfielder before the transfer window shuts later today.</p>
<p>Tottenham are keen to bring Babel to White Hart Lane on a season-long loan deal. However, Liverpool are only willing to let Babel leave on a permanent basis.</p>
<p>The 23-year old has struggled to make much of an impact since joining Liverpool back in 2007 and should Babel stay, he is likely to spend much of the season sat on the bench.</p>
<p>It remains to be seen if a deal can be struck between Liverpool and Tottenham so stay tuned to Football Corner for all the latest.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft" src="http://img.skysports.com/09/10/218x298/Carlton-Cole-West-Ham-United-Premier-League-P_2368961.jpg" alt="" width="218" height="298" />According to reports this evening, Liverpool are closing in on the £11 million signing of West Ham striker Carlton Cole.</p>
<p>Roy Hodgson is desperate to add another striker to the books at Anfield before the transfer window shuts on Tuesday and it has been confirmed that Liverpool have opened talks with West Ham.</p>
<p>Cole, 26, is considered by many as an ideal strike partner for Fernando Torres and with the England international understood to be interested in a switch to Merseyside, the move looks inevitable.</p>
<p>Following the departure of Javier Mascherano to Barcelona and the subsequent arrivals of Raul Meireles and Paul Konchesky, Hodgson had this to say after today&#8217;s 1-0 victory over West Brom: &#8220;We&#8217;ve got space to add a player. We&#8217;d like  another striker, we&#8217;ve said that all along and there&#8217;s no point me  denying it.&#8221;</p>
<p>There is no doubt that on his day, Cole is one of the best strikers in the Premier League. However, at the rumoured £11 million, I&#8217;m not too sure whether this move represents value for money for Liverpool. I would be surprised if the deal didn&#8217;t go ahead before the window shuts on Tuesday.</p>

<p>The Argentine has been strongly linked with a move away from Anfield ever since he admitted that he would be interested in a summer move away from Merseyside.</p>
<p>Inter Milan were the early favourites to sign Mascherano. However, it was reported earlier this week that Barca were in negotiations to sign the 26-year old and after a number of days of increased speculation, it has been confirmed this morning that the two clubs have come to an agreement.</p>
<p>The fee is understood to be around the £18 million mark and Liverpool boss Roy Hodgson will no doubt be keen to add another midfielder to his squad before the transfer window shuts next Tuesday.</p>
<p>A lot has been said about Mascherano in recent days and weeks but no matter what you think of the guy, you can&#8217;t deny he is a quality player. It will be interesting to see if he gets much of a game at the Camp Nou considering the fact Pep Guardiola already has a number of world class midfielders to chose from.</p>

<p>Roy Hodgson is willing to let Mascherano join Barcelona if the Spanish giants meet Liverpool&#8217;s £19 million asking price.</p>
<p>With Mascherano likely to leave Anfield in the coming days, Hodgson is already looking for possible replacements. Dozens of names have been linked with a move to Liverpool this summer but with Real looking to offload a number of midfielders, Diarra is now seen as a likely acquisition.</p>
<p>The 29-year old is desperate to leave the Bernabeu before the transfer window shuts following the arrival of Mesut Ozil at the club. It is understood that Liverpool would have to cough up somewhere near the £5 million mark if they are to get their hands on the Malian international.</p>
<p>I personally believe Diarra would be a superb signing for Liverpool. He is a very similar player to Mascherano in that he rarely ever gets on the scoresheet but he has a terrific range of passing and at the rumoured £5 million, I think he would prove excellent value for money.</p>

<p>Former Liverpool boss Rafa Benitez is desperate to bring the Dutch international to the San Siro before the transfer window shuts at the end of the month.</p>
<p>Kuyt, 30, seems to be interested in a possible move to the Italian giants, calling it a &#8220;luxury situation&#8221; for himself to be in right now.</p>
<p>Roy Hodgson knows he needs to sell if he is to bring anyone else to Anfield this summer and with a £15 million bid now on the table from Inter, I for one reckon Kuyt will be leaving Merseyside in the coming days.</p>
<p>If Kuyt does leave, who do you think Liverpool should spend the £15 million on? Comments below please.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft" src="http://img.skysports.com/09/10/218x298/aquilani_2374721.jpg" alt="" width="218" height="298" />Liverpool midfielder Alberto Aquilani has joined Italian side Juventus on a season-long loan deal, after he was deemed surplus to requirement at Anfield.</p>
<p>Liverpool boss Roy Hodgson didn’t include the Italian midfielder in the squad for Thursday night’s Europa league clash against Trabzonspor as Hodgson wanted to complete a deal sooner rather than later. If Aquilani had of played it would have left him ineligible to play for another team in European competition.</p>
<p>&#8220;At the moment we are considering loaning him to an Italian club.&#8221; said Hodgson after Thursday&#8217;s 1-0 win over Trabzonspor.</p>
<p>Aquilani, who has been capped 11 times by Italy, has made only 28 appearances for the Reds, scoring two goals in the process, has struggled with injuries and found it hard to find top form at the club.</p>
<p>Aquilani had been strongly linked with a move to Juventus after Liverpool completed the signing of Danish midfielder Christian Poulsen from the Turin club, for £4.5 million last week.</p>
<p>Juventus have also completed the signing of Serbian international striker Milos Krasic from CSKA Moscow in a deal which is worth over £12m.</p>
<p>Liverpool will no doubt be hoping Aquilani regains some of the form which led Rafa Benitez to cough up £20 million for him last summer. It has been speculated that terms of the loan move would involve the new club paying all of his £65,000 wages (circa €4million a year) and an option to buy once the loan is complete.</p>

<p>The Welsh striker has already been heavily linked with a move away from Eastlands with Tottenham and several others believed to be interested but what about a surprise move back to Liverpool.</p>
<p>I know a lot of Liverpool fans never wanted to see Bellamy leave Anfield when he did back in 2007 so should Roy Hodgson make a move for the 31-year old now?</p>
<p>Personally, I am a huge fan of Bellamy&#8217;s and I honestly believe he is one of the best players in the Premier League. He is far too good to be sitting on the bench every week and for his sake, I hope he leaves City. With Liverpool still on the look-out for a new striker, I believe this makes perfect sense.</p>

<p>The Argentinian international is desperate to leave Anfield before the transfer window shuts at the end of the month and with Barca still in the market for a new midfielder following their failed pursuit of Arsenal&#8217;s Cesc Fabregas, it is suggested the Spanish giants will make a £22 million bid in the coming days.</p>
<p>Inter Milan president, Massimo Moratti today said that at the moment, the current European Champions cannot afford to buy Mascherano. Just hours later, Mascherano, 26, was quoted as saying that he would &#8220;love&#8221; a move to the Camp Nou and a move is likely to be completed early next week.</p>
<p>It will be fascinating to see how Mascherano adapts to life in La Liga. Even Liverpool fans, who have clearly lost a lot of respect for the player, would have to admit that he is a world class midfielder who deserves to be playing at the very highest level. We would love to hear your thoughts on this one. Simply leave your comments below.</p>
<p>You can buy a whole host of <a href="http://www.livefootballtickets.com/english-premiership-tickets.html">Premier League tickets</a> and <a href="http://www.livefootballtickets.com/la-liga-tickets.html">La Liga tickets</a> right now.</p>

<p>Plenty of names have already been linked with a move to Anfield in recent weeks and if you believe some reports, Liverpool are close to signing Juventus midfielder Christian Poulsen.</p>
<p>Even if Poulsen does sign, I, like many others, believe Hodgson will still buy a new central midfield player in the coming weeks. I have said it before, I reckon West Ham&#8217;s Scott Parker would be an excellent addition to the Liverpool squad but with the Hammers understandably reluctant to sell one of their star players, it would take a big offer to bring the former Chelsea midfielder to Merseyside.</p>
<p>So if and when Mascherano does leave, who should Liverpool sign to replace him? Please leave your comments below.</p>
